Dependent variables. Controlled variables. A variable is part of an experiment that can change, such as amount of light, temperature, humidity, time changes, or plant growth. In an experiment, an independent variable is a variable that either changes on its own, or you purposely change it.
These changing quantities are called variables, and an experiment usually has three kinds: independent, dependent, and controlled. The independent variable is the one that is changed by the scientist. In an experiment there is only one independent variable. As the scientist changes the independent variable, he or she observes what happens. The dependent variable changes in response to the change the scientist makes to the independent variable. The new value of the dependent variable is caused by and depends on the value of the independent variable. (the independent variable), the quantity of water flowing (dependent variable) changes in response--the water flow increases. The number of dependent variables in an experiment varies, but there is often more than one.
